Substrate structure for plasma display panel, method of manufacturing the substrate structure, and plasma display panel including the substrate structure

A plasma display panel (PDP) substrate structure comprising:

• a substrate;
• an electrode on the substrate, the electrode consisting of a first layer and a second layer, the second layer comprising an aluminum (Al) material, the first layer being between the substrate and the second layer, the first layer contacting the second layer on one surface and comprising a conductive material, the second layer having a second surface that is directly opposite and not in contact with the first layer or any other electrode layer, the electrode having a specific resistance not greater than 20 μΩ·cm;
• and
• a light absorbable layer on the substrate and adjoining the first layer, the light absorbable layer being an oxidization product of the conductive material of the first layer.

A plasma display panel comprising:

• a first substrate;
• a second substrate facing the first substrate;
• a first electrode on the first substrate, extending along a first direction, and comprising a first layer and a second layer, the second layer comprising an aluminum (Al) material, the first layer being between the first substrate and the second layer, the first layer contacting the second layer on one surface and comprising a conductive material having a lower specific resistance than that of Al, the second layer having a second surface that is directly opposite and not in contact with the first layer or any other electrode layer;
• a light absorbable layer on the first substrate and adjoining the first layer, the light absorbable layer being an oxidization product of the conductive material of the first layer;
• a dielectric layer on the first substrate to cover the first electrode and the light absorbable layer;
• and
• a second electrode spaced apart from the first electrode and on the second substrate, and extending along a second direction crossing the first direction.

A plasma display panel (PDP) substrate structure comprising:

• a substrate;
• an electrode on the substrate and comprising a first layer and a second layer, the second layer comprising a first conductive material and a surface treatment agent for protecting the first conductive material from oxidation, the first layer being between the substrate and the second layer, the first layer contacting the second layer on one surface and comprising a second conductive material having a lower specific resistance than that of the first conductive material, the second layer having a second surface that is directly opposite and not in contact with the first layer or any other electrode layer;
• and
• a light absorbable layer on the substrate and adjoining the first layer, the light absorbable layer being an oxidization product of the second conductive material of the first layer.
